Yes. You may be able to make a single rule:
'Any -> [Services Group with HTTP & HTTPS] -> [Add'l External Address] : DNAT to [Internal host] with HTTPS'.

It may not be true anymore, but, in the past, we had problems with DNATting HTTPS to HTTPS. Our habit is to make separate rules for HTTP and HTTPS. For HTTPS, we do:
'Any -> HTTPS -> [Add'l External Address] : DNAT to [Internal host]' (leave 'Destination Service' empty).

Hi,
An https server expects https traffic, which is not the same as http traffic. A simple DNAT won't work.
What you should be doing is a redirect on a webserver.
